He also drugs his own mother without her knowledge, believes that "consent is overrated", and [[spoiler:is the main villain of the second book]].

* JerkassWoobie: Declan Lynch. [[MuggleBornOfMages The only 'normal' Lynch]], he was TheUnfavorite, and grew up in a household that he didn't fit in, and that never tried to acclimate him. He learned to be ProperlyParanoid and a SecretKeeper as a child, and as a teen got PromotedToParent when his father was murdered and his mother fell into a coma immediately afterward. And despite being an AloofBigBrother who seems to enjoy antagonizing Ronan, he still loves his brothers and [[BigBrotherInstinct tries to protect them]] from the dangerous people Niall Lynch dealt with.

* FunnyMoments: "Gansey! This is the countryside. Where bees live!"
** A lot of Gansey and Blue's early interactions fall under this category:
--> '''Gansey:''' How much do you make in an hour? I'll take care of it. And I'll talk to your manager.
--> '''Blue:''' ...I am not a ''prostitute.''
--> All this time she'd been wondering how Gansey might die and it turned out she was going to strangle him.
** The Greenmantles may be nightmarishly awful human beings, but it's absolutely hilarious seeing them bicker, passive-aggressively snipe at each other, and eat cheese like any other married yuppies while facing down hitmen, committing murder, and searching for supernatural forces of evil.
** Ronan throwing Noah out of a window for fun in ''The Dream Thieves.''
** In ''The Raven King'', Helen finds out that Gansey [[spoiler: bribed the Aglionby headmaster by promising to give him Monmouth Manufacturing in exchange for Ronan's ensured graduation]]. Her immediate reaction is [[spoiler: to ask if Gansey and Ronan are sleeping together]]. It's such an out of left field assumption in what's otherwise a fairly grim conversation that {{Bathos}} is fully in effect.

Is he struggling with the anger and emotional backlash from an abusive father and taking on Cabeswater, or is he a selfish, misogynistic tool with anger issues that are never dealt with?

*** Significantly mitigated by ''Blue Lily, Lily Blue'' and ''The Raven King'', where Adam gains control of his temper and shows much more respect for Blue. While he still has his detractors, his growth in those books has generally made fans more sympathetic towards his behavior in ''The Dream Thieves'' than they were when it was newly released.
